Try dyna beads or any other brand dynamic balance beads. You pour them into the tire through the valve stem and that’s it. When the wheel is turning they naturally move around to the light spot and balance the wheel. I’ve used them in many bikes and they work great until you get to track day speed (120+ mph).
I’ve also learned that I can’t stand battery operated motion sensors!
Have you found any plug-in motion sensors that you use instead? It looks like they are generally much more expensive than the battery powered ones, which doesn’t make any sense to me.
This might lead to more cooperation between some of the defendants and the prosecutors. It seems like Trump-funded lawyers never seem to suggest cooperation to their clients.
It seems like there are a million bikes in this class these days. How does it compare to any of them?
Other than fresh gas, what did you have to do to it to get it running? How much of that was the reason it was parked in the first place, versus damage from being parked for 20 years?
I got to ride a few hundred miles on one of these about 10 years ago on some pretty fantastic roads.
It was a great bike, but very weird to see the minivan dashboard on a very competent sport tourer!
How’s the long distance comfort? Could you comfortably do a 600 mile day on it?
That might just be the ticket. The K1300S shown about his now for sale, since I’ve picked up a 2012 Multistrada 1200 S. It’s probably the least adventuresome ADV bike, but it seems to be a great compromise between the goals of:
So far so good on the MTS 1200, although there are some annoyances: non-existent rear brake, iffy quality of buttons/display, annoying and expensive valve/belt maintenance.
Maybe I’ll pick up a newer V4 multistrada in a few years when they price into my price range.
But that’s still a pretty wide spectrum, right?
K1300S/R1250RS --> GSX-S1000GT/Tracer 9GT --> R1250RT/FJR (Obviously lots more bikes in each of those categories)
How do you choose if you want a SPORT-tourer or a sport-TOURER?
I’m starting to suspect that age has a lot to do with it. I’ve owned that k1300s for over 10 years, and the knee angle and lack of cruise control makes me a lot less excited to ride it now than when I bought it.
Which we are, so that’s fine. It’s fine to have your opinion, but to assume it is so universal as to be part of the rules of grammar is a bridge too far.
